Beaten, Bruised and Finding God in it All.

I am so tired... I feel pretty beaten up, I mean can't you tell I am writing this at 3:45 in the morning. I am trying to find what it means to allow the Lord to "carry you" and to for Him to take over your life. I guess I am struggling with all the of "Christian lingo," what do these words mean? What does it look like to be "consumed" and how does that happen? I may just be writing this out of frustration and exhaustion, but geee whiz... I am wrestling. 

Jacob wrestled with God, and God did 2 things:

a. put him in his place
b. blessed him and allowed him more opportunities to glorify our Lord and Savior

So, put me in the ring... It's time to wrestle.

I'm not going to leave you a Sunday School Club comment. (Well...maybe I am.) However, I will tell you that when I'm going through a particularly difficult time, I find the OT most reassuring. Life IS an Epic battle. The REAL stories of the OT testify to this reality. We're in good company. KEEP WRESTLING! Love you oodles!
